Same here.  Only I didn't migrate all my bash settings (including histappend)
to my latest laptop, because I've been hemming and hawing about moving to
zsh, and bouncing back and forth between the two.  It's only just occurred
to me that I need to find and set the zsh equivalent of histappend.  Thanks
for the heads-up, and apologies for losing the lrex-gnu build magic.
